You're Dying
December 17, 2014
You think you know it all
You don’t know at all
You feel strong
But your strength is gone
You feel powerful
You’re losing control
You feel alive
But you’re dying
You’ve held on for so long
You think you can continue on
But you’re wrong
Soon you’ll be gone
You’re tired, depressed, scared, and alone
You slowly start feeling it in your bones
You are irrevocably dying, it’s true.
Don’t wait too long to live, there is so much to lose.

I wrote this about the fragility of life while I was really sick and my friend had just made a suicide attempt. There is so much time we spend wasting, wishing for something better. And as hard as it is, I try every day to live.
